Well, at the risk of violating the some chief tenets & belief systems of many here @ FR, perhaps there is another potential reason why Trump isn't acting against the globalists: He may secretly agree with them.

Now, why would that be? Simple, other than sunlight, earth is a closed system. As such, it is subject to resource exhaustion, environmental degradation and overpopulation. In a world shaped by scarce resources, competition over the rights of access, use and enjoyment create wars and other conflicts. Before the advent of nuclear weapons, nations needed unified, cohesive societies in order to field large armies and manage massive materiel production.

After WWII, the global elite recognized three problems: nuclear weapons made 1st world war so destructive as to be essentially obsolete. They also didn't need incredibly over-scaled production operations, especially in light of declining readily available natural resources. And lastly, what to do with populations of people who were promised certain rewards, and developed very high expectations about economic prospects regarding standards of living?

The solution, as we've all seen over the years, was to de-industrialize the west by moving production offshore to China and other 3rd world countries. Secondly, rather than deal with and attempt to appease those citizens who had put their heart and soul into believing the stories they were told, they decided it was much easier to just replace then with substitute peoples much, much easier to manage and control.

That, in essence is the globalist agenda: control the world's mass of people in an environment of (greatly) reduced economic standards of living. A key component was to get rid of anyone, any culture, that holds any institutional memory of how "things used to be". And, so here we are - a world-wide strategy agreed to by the leaders, political parties and commercial industries of every developed country.

So too Trump - after all, globalism make perfect rationale sense. Anyone who knows what's occurring can certainly agree with the basic premise. However, what if Trump deferred to that sensibility by realizing there could be one last hurrah by appealing to those targeted for replacement? This would explain a lot of the action of the deep state - in a sense, Trump violated his honor and trust by turning on the globalist ideal in order to satisfy his own ego.

As for me, while I agree with everything I wrote above, I still believe open markets and free will can develop the solutions necessary to meet the formidable challenges. I'm not so pessimistic as to embrace the notion that the world can only survive by re-embracing a feudalistic society. I was hoping Trump was the guy to re-assert the alternative to what is planned for all.

Your thesis in post 60 suffers from two fatal errors.

First, natural resources are not becoming more scarce. In 1980, economist Julian Simon challenged Paul Ehrlich to a bet. Five commodities were chosen by Erlich, and by 1990 all five were lower in cost and more abundant.Their wager demonstrated that Malthusian doctrine was false prophesy.

Second, the standard of living is much higher in the US than in 1945, and perhaps the levels in Latin America, Asia, and even Africa have grown at an even higher rate.

The globalists have vastly overplayed their hand. Most are exhausted white elites who have lost any core ideals such as religious belief, patriotism, family and hope for the future. They are ashamed of their very essence. However the Chinese, Indians and uncorrupted whites in places like eastern Europe, Russia and the majority of the current American population do not share the melancholy and resignation of the exhausted, white Western elites. They remain nationalists and will play lip service but never enforce international agreements that harm their nations. (BTW, the Chinese have always viewed most of Asia as their “nation”.).

The globalists saw their greatest threat a resurgent nationalist and capitalist Russia, unshackled by Communism and inspired by Russian history and heritage, in de facto alliance with an equally nationalistic, heritage loving America. When Trump showed an interest in developing a new, more accomadating relationship with Russia, this alarmed the globalists greatly and was a prime motivation in the effort to destroy him.

This is a possibility. What argues against it is almost 30 years of Trump comments to the contrary.
